Presqu'ile Winery, located in the cool-climate region of Santa Maria Valley, focuses on sustainable and organic farming practices. The Murphy family, along with winemaker Dieter Cronje, produces site-specific wines that reflect the unique terroirs of Santa Barbara County.
- WINEMAKER: Dieter Cronje, consulting with Jeremy Seysses of Domaine Dujac.
- FARMING: Sustainable practices, maintaining balance in the ecosystem.
- VARIETY: 100% Chardonnay.
- TERROIR: A blend of grapes from multiple vineyards, including Noth Canyon, Whitehawk, and Cottonwood, grown on sandy loam and sandy soils.
- VINIFICATION: Native yeast fermentation, followed by aging for 6 months in neutral French oak (60%) and stainless steel (30%) to maintain freshness and minerality.
- TASTING NOTES: Bright and refreshing, with flavors of Meyer lemon, citrus peel, and white flowers, balanced by a hint of saline. It’s a medium-bodied, beautifully balanced wine with vibrant acidity.
- SCORES: 91 points – Jeb Dunnuck
